What have you done to your Tacoma today? 1st Gen Edition

255/85-16 about 33.4" tire.

 

Same here. If I'm going over 80 the rpms are high enough it doesn't change gears at all. If I'm going 70-75 I just turn OD off near the bottom of the hill, especially if I'm using cruise control.

 

ordered some allpro wheel spacers today

 

time to bust out the undercoat gun and go to town on this frame

 

The rack is from Safari LTD. It's a new rack not a reman. It is reported to use higher quality materials in the housing, better seals, better guides. It'll run you about $500 so it isn't cheap but from my research people using them are having much better results than they are from reman'd racks.


At this point it's all still unconfirmed. It looked like a good unit to try out so I gave it a shot. I'll have long term feedback........later.

 

i'd recommended, in addition to this, buying some of the aersol cans which have the extensions and stuff them inside the square openings along the length of your frame, and you can effectively fluid film the interior of the frame as well

 

i got a 3 foot wand that screws on the undercoat gun for spraying inside the frame or rockers

 

can i come over?

 

X2 what did the whole set up run? Trying to find a cheap way to protect my frame

 

Lol if you guys were anywhere near me yeah. I got it off ebay, the gallon was 45 shipped and the spray gun was about 15 or so and the wand like 15 or something.. I just got a new frame from toyota, this one's gonna last
this looks what i got http://www.ebay.com/itm/FLUID-FILM-1-Gallon-Kit-/160942177193?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2578e6bba9

Ordered my 4:88 gears today front and rear with the ARB locker for the front...
Next will be the double case set up....

 

As far as I know it's 15 years after the vehicle production date.

But they aren't going to replace it because of surface rust. They'll only replace it if it fails the quality control testing.

 

If you had the frame sprayed under the warranty it is still eligible for frame replacement if you have rust that has perforated the frame. Otherwise most stealerships won't be able to do anything. I have the same thing, truck was treated in 2012 but since I have no holes I can't do anything about it. They said I can take it up with the stealership that did the spray or try to hit up toyota corp, but otherwise you are SOL.

 

What does the code P0136 mean?

 

O2 sensor

In the same boat man. So now I am doing whatever I can to make sure I monitor it and keep it in good shape.

 

Snagged a carport parking spot .



Is this pic upside down? Some people say my build thread pics are upside down. They seem fine on my laptop, but on my iPhone they appear upside down... not sure why . They are straight when I upload them to photo bucket.

 

I have the URD o2 sensor delete!

 

Looks good to me.
